At Peterson Health, your joint replacement care begins the moment you and your physician decide that hip or knee replacement is the best option for you. Our class will help you and your loved ones prepare for your journey Back To Life.

You will receive valuable information on all things joint replacement – from preparing yourself and your home, to nutrition and exercise before and after surgery.

During the class, you will learn about:

• The surgical joint replacement procedure
• The role of physical therapy in your recovery
• Care you will receive before, during, and after surgery
• Specialized equipment that will aid you in rehabilitation
• How pain will be controlled throughout the process
• Leaving the hospital

Who Should Attend?

• Anyone scheduled for a joint replacement (we also encourage you to bring a family member or friend who will be with you throughout your journey).
• Anyone interested in Back to Life, our total knee and hip replacement program.
